Dalton Re-Opening, But Much Work Ahead

Alaska Department of Transportation

The Alaska Department of Transportation plans to re-open the flood damaged northern stretch of the Dalton Highway to traffic Friday morning. As KUAC’s Dan Bross reports, the opening will follow a nearly 3 week closure caused by melt out of unusually heavy overflow ice from the Sag River.

Dan has been in public radio news in Alaska since 1993. He’s worked as a reporter, newscaster and talk show host at stations in McGrath, Valdez and Fairbanks. Dan’s experience includes coverage of a wide range of topics, from wolf control to the Trans-Alaska Pipeline and dog mushing.
